I've tried but the game tends to crash whenever I play unlanded characters. I made a threat about it concerning the Kingsguard but it didn't get much attention...in fact as I've seen playing anywhere outside of Westeros will tend to result in the game crashing.
Edit: I made a thread, not a threat.
Oh no, I was able to play, albeit for a very limited time. It ends in a crash a few years in.
Is that the guy that's an adventurer? If so I played as him and it worked fine. Conquered Essos with him.
Just declare dragon conquests and call in the Iron Throne. Between the IT's troops and the enemy repeatedly landing in the stepstones and you repeatedly slaughtering him with your dragon rider you win pretty easy.How precisely did you go on to do that?
Currently, the game disbands Daemon's fleet after the war for the Stepstones is won (the one how the game starts). Did you perhaps surrender and declare another instead, or you're referring to a previous version in which he gets to keep the fleet?

You can invade all the other republics besides the one you start at war with. The one you start at war with is old so he usually dies within a few years then you can just pick him off. As for the counties, you don't get them anyway. You just get them as a vassal and seize their top title if it's equal to yours.Hm. Will try that. Of course, that includes that the army is not left in Essos, because if it is done then there is no way to declare war due to the "cannot declare war if units in enemy counties" factor.
Is the truthbreaker - worth it? My prestige shall go negative, diplomacy'll go down to 9 from 14 and it states all oriental rulers will get a -25 opinion modifier against me, which could be pretty bad...or do wait for the ten years to expire first?
Also, if I win the war without occupying any of their counties, doesn't that mean I also will not get any of them? This is especially important, since it means Myr will just rebel against me if I do that (just like had happened with Dorne).
P. S. Just to make it clear; Daemon losing the fleet is intentional?

The original scenario war is not a dragon conquest war, which is what Vortex is talking about above.
You can hire mercenary ships.All counties in the Stepstones are received if they manage to get occupied. I myself had sieged through all of them, which led to me becoming the owner of each and every holding.
Daemon has got the money and he defeats the pirates; should there not be some way of hiring ships? Either by conscripting merchants, purchasing them from someone or simply building them? It's a little improbable that the pirates would have no ships for their new overlord i.e. that the pirate dens are practically worthless navy-wise.
Care to elaborate? I do not follow.
